HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO, a Luxury Collection Hotel & Spa, Japan [Master Thread]
Marriott is adding a new property in Kyoto under the Luxury Collection brand. The property was briefly showing up in search results and was later pulled, but is now showing again with a tentative Nov 2020 opening.

Just noticed this hotel pop-up when searching for Kyoto. Still not bookable yet (now projecting Nov 2020 opening), but I'm amazed it's currently listed as a Cat 7! It looks incredible.

I've asked the mods to update the target open date in the title.

This is normal and even more so given that the current situation regarding tourism may push their opening date further, among other things that often cause hotel opening dates to slip.
Agreed.
For the record, bookings are showing on the hotel's own website. The standard room is pricing at 92,000 yen per night for opening night, pricing goes up to 195,000 yen a night for the executive suites.

Very surprised to see the Mitsui Kyoto has an onsen on site (as does the RC Nikko). Definitely worth checking out. You could even use a 50,000 point FNA during an off-peak stay.

Equivalent. Everything in Kyoto is far apart. There's no good location; there's no bad location. (Well, "bad" would be far out of town or something...)

The Mitsui is next to Nijo castle which isn't *that* big of an attraction, but it is more centrally located in Kyoto overall and easier to get to get to Arashiyama.and Kinkaku-ji. But as stvr stated, Kyoto attractions are really spread out
